The President called the Hearing Session to order and called for comments

from visitors.

Mr. Bill Freeman, community member, recounted that he attended school

here, worked in this district, and also served on the Fontana City Council. He

stated he was present at this time to clear his name and to dispel and refute rumors

within the district. He emphasized that he not now nor has he ever been involved

in any scheme or plan to endorse candidates for the Board of Education to see that

Dr. Harshman is fired. He also emphasized that he has always supported Dr.

Harshman and the Board of Education. He explained how the rumors started

while he was working with Mr. McClure on a Blue Ribbon Committee. He also

noted that about a year ago he did have a conversation with a public official during

which he did indicate he might someday like to throw his hat into the ring but only

when Dr. Harshman left the position. He endorsed incumbent board members and

praised achievements currently occurring in the school district due to board

members and superintendent leadership. He congratulated the Board, Dr.

Harshman, site administrators, support staff and particularly teachers in the

classroom.

Mr. McClure corroborated Mr. Freeman’s comments regarding their

conversations.

Mr. Tony Orlich commented regarding Abe Lincoln and Harry S. Truman

as Presidents.

Visitors’

Comments

Ms. Linda Young thanked the Board for support for the secondary elective

program. She referred to a newspaper article indicating Fontana has done very

well and thanked parents, students and teachers for their dedication, hours, and

creativity. She noted that teachers are anxiously awaiting a proposal and looking

forward to the next negotiations session.

Mr. Tony Micciche reported he had become aware of a situation where

several substitute custodians are working 30-day assignments and requests for

additional custodians have been denied. He asked when custodians would be hired

to meet the district’s needs. He noted that there are classified positions being hired

at this meeting, however, there are also many work experience positions on the

agenda. Mr. Micciche indicated that the District had cancelled the last 3

negotiations session and expressed hope that the next meeting would not be

cancelled. Mr. Micciche reminded everyone this is the last meeting before the

election for the Board of Education.

Dr. Harshman reported that Randall-Pepper Elementary School was headed

for corrective action by the state, however, this year that school leads the county in

the amount of API points gained this past year. She noted a letter of

congratulations had been received from Delaine Eastin, State Superintendent of

Schools, indicating that the State will not be pursuing corrective action.

Correspondence


45

Dr. Ruble stated he had received note from a former employee who watches

the meeting on TV and noted that when the camera is on this side of the room there

is a glare and equipment piled behind the glass shows.

Dr. Ruble credited and acknowledged teachers for their excellent work.

Dr. Ruble asked that Congressman Baca’s office be contacted to get a status

report on establishing an Army Jr. ROTC Program at Henry J. Kaiser High School.

He noted that Mr. Tunney and he had been working on this for some time.

Dr. Ruble asked that Mr. Micciche’s concerns regarding employment of

custodians be checked into.

Dr. Ruble spoke about transportation problems getting students to

educational programs and field trips and stated he felt the District should try to fund

those as much as possible and not rely on PTA to do it.

Ms. Mancha asked the Superintendent to comment regarding the transfer of

the Fontana High School Drama Teacher which had been a major student concern

at the prior Board Meeting.

Dr. Harshman reported that one of the major reasons for the proposed

transfer was that Henry J. Kaiser High School had no drama teacher and Fontana

High School had two. Also there was a need to transfer several Fontana High

School teachers due to enrollment. Mr. Beal provided information about a possible

teacher the evening of the Board Meeting. That teacher did meet the requirements

and was employed thereby allowing Mr. Beal to stay at Fontana High School.

Ms. Mancha asked the administration to explore the Reading about the 21st

Century learning grant.

Ms. Mancha also gave special thanks to teachers for their hard work in

raising API scores.

Mrs. Binks stated she would like to go on record that she does support

electives in schools and commented that she did not understand why the word is out

there that she doesn’t. She emphasized that she does support the reading program

but not at the expense of all electives.

Mrs. Binks also expressed appreciation to teachers and all support team at

each school site in relation to API.

Comments

Mr. McClure stated he, too, had been enjoying the newspaper articles

regarding Fontana’s API scores. He indicated it should be remembered that this is

happening in classrooms with teachers and kids who are obviously getting support.

Mr. Hawthorn commented that often concerns are expressed that because of

the change in student demographics that the challenges in terms of teaching our

diverse population are much greater than in years past. He noted that no doubt there

is truth in that statement, however, he referred to a copy of a 1975 Herald-News

issue with several education-related articles:

- Critical year for school district, citing low reading scores and financial

concerns

- Ad by FTA expressing concern with overcrowded classes, lack of reading

materials and potential loss of music classes, sports and clubs

He commented that this serves as a good reminder that while educating kids is a

major challenge, it has never been easy. He acknowledged that we have some very

hard working teachers and classified employees supported by equally hard working

site and district administrators and that expectations are higher than ever before.

Mr. Hawthorn stated that when the tough choices between reading and

electives were made some electives were lost. He noted that those reading

interventions do seem to be working and it should not be forgotten that as those

reading scores improve that those electives will be brought back. He asked how that

decision would be made.

Dr. Harshman explained that it would be based on reading scores on the SAT

9 test. Currently students must achieve the 40th

percentile. She felt this should be a

motivation factor for students. She further explained that electives were cut based on

the numbers of students who were eligible to take electives.

Dr. Harshman agreed with Board Members that we are proud of everyone

and particularly students who raised API scores. She stated that district students

also did extremely well on the High School Exit Exam.

Dr. Harshman announced that the Relay for Life Kick off rally would be

held Tuesday, October 23, 2001 from 5-7 p.m. at the Sons of Italy. She encouraged

people to come to find out what it is about and sign up for their teams.
